If Tibetan philosophies of non-attachment made passionate love to high-level business acumen with a hefty dash of bodymind connection, and raised their resultant love child on a steady diet of craft beer, traditional foods, mountain living, yoga, and snow skiing you'd have, Makenna Johnston. Fondly known as MakJo. MakJo is a passionate coach & thought leader for visionary leaders-entrepreneurs, creatives, and corporate rabblerousers. She has over a decade of experience working with Fortune 500 companies, coaches, organizations, artists, and writers to create strategic visions and missions that kick ass and take names.She comes from a background of academia both as a professor and as a PhD Candidate at the European Graduate School.In 2015, she followed a lark/hunch/intuitive pull and found a team to purchase Julia Child's summer home in Provence which is now being run as a retreat center and home for the Courageous Cooking School.A big picture see-er, and MakJo can whip nearly any vision into actionable shape. She's mighty tall. Mighty fun. And mighty into kimonos (and manatees). She probably likes you a lot, and don't be surprised if she asks you to be her best friend.
